-i have limited work experience (2 months), and i'm involved in a few clubs. but i also reapplied for my 2nd time and i'm getting my BS in biology this year (i think they also factored this in)

 

[Gracie93402]

I didn't get a phone call yet. . . And I thought I did really well at the interview

 

[yankee22fan]

Interviewed on Nov 30, 2007. Drove from Kingsport, Tennessee. Wait listed 🙁
GPA: 3.996
Hours: 115
PCAT: ~67

I sent my fall grades to them in January, has anyone else been wait listed and have you herd of getting accepted really late like march or april? I have a seat at ETSU but I like mercer's program more.

 

[pyro3rsx]

if you're waitlisted...it's just a long wait period. i know a girl who was waitlisted last year and she found out a week before they started classes that she got in. yea it sucks that they do this, but just be hopeful.

Sounds like we are either waitlisted or denied. That's a big letdown for me, that was my best interview, and so I thought it was also my best chance at getting in. Now I don't know what to do with myself. I've been mopey all day. :cry: How are you handling it?

i spoke to a student and she said there can be 3 situations one can be in....still making a decision, waitlisted, or denied. hopefully mine is the making decision one. i am hoping and praying. letters are being sent so hopefully by the end of week we should know our faith

 

[Gracie93402]

OOh, so they possibly HAVEN'T made all of the final decisions yet?!?! 😀 There is still hope!!! 😀

I just got an email that said they are keeping me on hold and will be reviewing the applications AGAIN in March. 🙁

 

[Gracie93402]

That stinks. How long have you been on hold?

 

[yankee22fan]

[Gracie93402]

did u get the letter yet?

Nope, nothing yet. However, I am on the west coast so I will probably get mine last. 🙁

 

[CaliRx]

Any body else down here in Atlanta for an interview tomorrow? I can't sleep right now and my interview is tomorrow😱

Congrats and Dont sweat it, its really no big deal. You do a meet and greet with the dean and a few faculty, then u meet with a prof 1 on 1 and they ask why pharmacy, why mercer, etc; then you meet with a current p3 student who asks the same thing. Be your self and dont sweat it, seriously its no big deal.🙂

[Gracie93402]

So. . . I got my letter. And the verdict is: Waitlisted. I'm okay though. Ironically enough, it came in the same mail load as an acceptance to Creighton U. 😀

I'm a little confused about turning in the deposit. The packet didn't come with a specific form, so should we just mail them a check?

Yep I think that that is the idea. I would just make sure that your name is on it. I sent mine check in a couple of days ago and received a confirmation email when they received it.
